Do you have a complete outline, start to finish? That's how I did it, and I think it's more suitable for first time authors.

Pros like Sidney Sheldon can dictate an entire bestseller from their current day's thoughts, with no outline, but he has been writing for 60 years! For us, I'd outline every chapter, every character, every twist.

No Outline. I have been trying the outline thing for years. I can never seem to get through it. But this story is definitely in need of some organization.

I was thinking that the doctor should hand mr blah blah the paper as a reason for allowing him an extended stay.

One of my problems is that I am at odds in my purpose. I would like to write to make some money, but satire of idiots, is fun, and comes so naturally to me.

Unfortunately, it is hard to sell anything so "wrongly" politically biased in this age of "reason".

So,essentially, I posted this, to guage the marketability - to see whether it was worth putting more effort into, or if my efforts would more productively be spent in other pursuits of the wonderful green paper.
